i do use it so its all gravy.....
only thing is im going to be using it to commute to work and im not sure if a carbon bike is going to like that kind of abuse....
maybe floatlite can add a lil bit of info to that?

wouldnt reccommend it in a mountain bike tire. but road tires have so little air in them i cant see it making much difference...
